Also, when these interfaces are used in non PCI Expressapplications, only two power states are supported, as shown in Table 2-26. When using thispower-down mechanism, these must be true:• TXPD[1] and TXPD[0] are connected together.• RXPD[1] and RXPD[0] are connected together.• TXDETECTRX must be strapped Low.• TXELECIDLE must be strapped to TXPD[1] and TXPD[0].LoopbackFunctional DescriptionLoopback modes are specialized configurations of the transceiver datapath where the traffic streamis folded back to the source. Typically, a specific traffic pattern is transmitted and then compared tocheck for errors. Figure 2-22 illustrates a loopback test configuration with four different loopbackmodes.Loopback test modes fall into two broad categories:• Near-end loopback modes loop transmit data back in the transceiver closest to the trafficgenerator.• Far-end loopback modes loop received data back in the transceiver at the far end of the link.Table 2-26: TX and RX Power States for Operation that are not for PCI ExpressDesignsTXPD[1:0] orRXPD[1:0] Description00 Normal mode. Transceiver TX or RX is active sending or receiving data.11 Power-down mode. Transceiver TX or RX is idle.X-Ref Target - Figure 2-22Figure 2-22: Loopback Testing OverviewTest Logic Near-End GTP1 2 3 4Far-End GTPLink Near-End Test Structures Link Far-End Test StructuresTrafficCheckerTrafficGeneratorRX-PCSRX-PCSTX-PCSTX-PCSTX-PMATX-PMARX-PMARX-PMAUG482_c2_11_111111Send Feedback
